The Tinted Window | 84" x76"

About the Artwork

Tinted Window is a monumental 84" x 76" mixed media painting by Blu Smith created on canvas. This work exemplifies Smith's mastery of layered media, combining acrylic, oil, and cold beeswax to create a luminous and textural exploration of transparencies and the colours that filter through them.

—Vivid corals, magentas, and fiery oranges appear to emit their own light. Smith's skill is evident in the painting's striking colour, depth, and texture. The initial layers of acrylic add structure and vibrancy, while later oil layers enrich and blend the colours smoothly. The final touch of cold beeswax creates a glass-like finish that reflects light, giving the artwork a luminous quality that changes with perspective. Deep ultramarine and violet shadows frame the scene, providing sharp contrast against areas of seafoam green and pale lavender that seem to drift like veils across the surface. Unique to the artist is the textured impasto technique, forming a landscape of ridges and valleys that catch light and cast shadows, enhancing the work's dimensionality. Bold strokes and fluid paint suggest deliberate control and spontaneous energy, creating a lively tension that energizes the entire canvas.
